The legacy app is written with Oracle forms and stored procedures. Eventually it might 
go away. But refactoring is pretty much impossible. And for now it is simply really 
unwise to alienate all of the existing _paying_ customers, by messing with it too much 
or taking it away while we can only offer a half done Java solution.

This is a big enterprise asset management system. Not just a tiny application you can 
rewrite in a year or so.

For the time being we simply have to put up with the constraints we are facing. Once 
there is no legacy application using the database, we can move on and develop smarter 
solutions.
